#2 So then what's up with the two anti-nuke signs there? Oh yeah, its bullshit.

So the question is, is this cover for or a shakedown of the president? Both?

#3 WaPo: Several thousand protesters from across the country encircled the White House on Sunday to demand that President Obama deny a permit for a proposed oil pipeline that would stretch from Alberta to the Texas coast...After the protest, about 1,000 people joined Occupy DC in an impromptu, boisterous 90-minute march through downtown.

#4 The regressive party has struck again. I guess Canada will just build their western pipeline and export their oil to China. Better yet ship it to Texas to refine but cost an arm and a leg. The regressive party should beg China to send home money so they can sit on their hind parts and break wind at designated Occupy areas.

#5 A person must make wudu (ablution) if he hears a sound or perceives a smell of passing wind (gas)

Makes things a little more difficult for Muslim. The whole event is about as impure as you can get from what I'm hearing.

#7 Yes, JM I have heard about that Ice City the Russians are building or are going to build. Argentina is getting possessive about the South Pole also.

#8 Because transporting oil by ship is much better and safer for the environment than a pipeline. These people are against energy in all of its forms.
